TFM's stagflationary depression market forecast:
@Tfmonkey - Anticipated objection: shareholders are owners, and that's why the requirement for fiduciary responsibility exists.. 🤔 and it'd be a fair point.
But what if shareholders weren't owners? What if they bought rights to profit-sharing, contingent on profit being available, but without corporate control? ..or maybe limited corporate control.
In real estate, water rights, mineral rights, surface rights, etc, all exist on the same land. Maybe corporate ownership could be similarly split?
@Tfmonkey - Hoped for upside:
- Allows corporate MGMT to pursue long term vision, at the risk of short term profit.
- Allows corporations to prioritize (or simply comply with public zeitgeist) social trends - for example, instead of off-shoring in strict pursuit of profit, a company could hire domestic at the risk of some profit.
Possible downside:
- greater risk for investors. But maybe that's just part of the gamble?
What do you think? Am I far wrong in that it might broadly help culturally?
@Tfmonkey ➡️ Given all that... I was wondering about the legal requirement of "fiduciary responsibility" being a legal requirement for corporate board members (I think that's it. I'm kinda ignorant on corporate structure to be honest... which is why I'm curious to hear your opinion).
What if we eliminated that legal requirement that corporations must act in order to maximize profits? Like, what's the worst that could happen?
@Tfmonkey - Don't know if it was intentional, but I feel like my question was indirectly answered on air, via superchat. Excellent points were made about corruption being the unavoidable problem, the impermanence of any given system, and capitalism being the only option where freedom is the default.
I've had a thought in the time since. Looking for ways to tinker for improvement.. My gripes with the current system is shortsightedness, and corporate driven cultural destruction. ➡️
Also, I forgot the code word for when TFM is under duress... 🤔
TFM's analysis makes sense, when viewing this in isolation... But when viewed against the backdrop, against the totality of events thus far? ...I can't buy it.
Normies might have a ways to go before they reach fuck it (what I've always called "the Rodney King moment"), but the realization of their situation is finally sinking in for Normies. I'm not pinning any plans or hopes on it, but that's what I think happened.
My personal opinion, for what it's worth? 🤔 I don't think Mossad pulled the trigger. But my gut says they are absolutely involved.
I think the effect this has had on normies, is the same as October 7th had on TFM (and myself). I think a light bulb has gone off for millions of Normies. I doubt that most would ever give it any voice just yet, but the thought has entered their minds... and the progressive conditioning has cracked, for millions.

•I have no trouble accepting that Israel views America, in the same way that America views Ukraine. Given that, if some young Ukrainian rabble-rouser started rousing rabble in a manner that could even remotely interfere with America's meddling in that foreign land that no one here gives a shit about... what would America do about that without hesitation? 🤔🤔🤔
➡️ Charlie Kirk was controlled or not. And as a side note... whether Charlie Kirk was a grifter or not, would be utterly irrelevant to Israel. Israel is a nation of grifters (with *possible* exception of the Orthodox). Israel would not dismiss Charlie Kirk, or any threat he posed, simply for him being a grifter.
•Why does the analysis assign so much reasoned calculation, to the same country that has *twice* targeted diplomats under the guise of "peace talks"? Why wouldn't Israel be reckless? ➡️
➡️ Israel would fear Charlie Kirk, for the same reason that Israel would fear TikTok. Yes, Tucker Carlson is bigger. And yes, there are many dipshits on the Internet criticizing Israel. But for all we know, Tucker is controlled. I understand Tucker has a family history of deep state activity. For all we know, grifter status notwithstanding, Charlie Kirk was the biggest uncontrolled opposition to Israel. That opposition was still embryonic, and rather tepid. But only Israel would truly know if ➡️
➡️ there's opposition to Netenyahu within Israel itself?" Well... Much like economics, politics also works at any scale - meaning that there's a regime of the Zionist faction of the regime, within Israel itself. And at the top of that pile? (as far as anyone can tell) - Bibi. If Mossad were to be involved... who would give the order? Would Israel take a vote on it? ...no. Bibi would call the shot. And he's currently waging a genocide in the West Bank.
•"Why would Israel fear Charlie Kirk?" ➡️
➡️ Without any firm assertion, it seems at least plausible that assassinating Charlie Kirk could fit into the framework of such a deal. Presumably, BRICS would like to accelerate the collapse of the West while avoiding WWIII. A bugaloo could accomplish that. I mean sure, Israel is so embedded in the regime that they know where the bodies are buried... and so what? Material aid (such as fomenting civil war), is so much more useful to BRICS than such knowledge.
•"Why would Israel do that, when ➡️
➡️ Under normal circumstances, that statement sounds reasonable enough. But we are not in normal circumstances. The US is teetering, and according to many, Israel is on the brink of betraying the US to BRICS.
•"Cui Bono? How would such an act benefit Israel?" I don't think TFM's scope is wide enough on this question. If Israel is about to betray the West to BRICS in order to preserve themselves... 🤔 What do they have to offer BRICS, in order to make that deal? What would BRICS want from Israel?➡️
➡️ coverup. Sometimes, an assassination is meant to send a message.
If Israel is a regime that is currently commiting a well-known genocide, and has the American ruling class so firmly by the balls, that they had nothing to fear from Charlie Kirk... then a more fitting question might be "Why wouldn't they just shoot him?" An assassination could very easily be meant to cow the US public - particularly the youth.
•"There are certain markers, that indicate something like deep state involvement." ➡️
"Cui Bono?"
I was catching up on the Sat & Wed show last night over my shift, and I have some thoughts to share about Charlie Kirk, in no particular order:
•We are not analyzing a sane world with sane actors. We are in the world of the Uvalde shooting (with cops ordered to do nothing), the Las Vegas shooting, the clot shot, and general female empowerment. Sanity should not be presumed.
•"What would Israel be trying to cover up by assassinating him?" Not every assassination is part of a ➡️
I've been seeing ads for law firms specializing in divorce. 🤔
Is it just me, or does this look like PUA tactics to anyone else? Like, if Andrew Tate (or a scammer in India) were to set up shop with a racket targeting married guys, I imagine it would look like this.
And the sad part is: Even if some idealistic red-pill lawyer existed, it's just too late. The heart strings of men have been pulled past the point of breaking. No one's buying this shit, & we are locked in for societal collapse. 🍻
@Tfmonkey - More fundamentally than economic affiliation, I'm a firm believer in "everything in moderation".
So even though I'm solidly on team capitalist, and have been for years... 🤔 I can't help thinking that AA presents a few reasons to temper capitalism somehow.
Anyway, if it interests you at all... I'd love to hear your thoughts. Is he putting the cart before the horse? ...or confusing the cause with the effect? Or could some emergent phenomenon influence larger questions? 🫡🍻
@Tfmonkey - In my youth, I was a leftist dipshit. I'm gonna plead poor education and youth on that. All I knew, is that me and my family were at the bottom, and the game was rigged. And the solutions I gravitated to, were "eat the rich" leftist.
I want to thank you for helping me to remove my head from my ass on that matter.
That said, AA presents some interesting ideas here.
➡️ with their collected trophies.
I'm sad to say, that I wouldn't expect the push to ban AI chat bots to abate... Because women will women it up, given the opportunity.
And even if some women *do* find solace in a chatbot... Women sabotage the happiness of other women all the time. I wouldn't expect any different from them, regarding AI.
So as ever... We'll see. 🫗
